I watched The Greatest Lover last night, which heavy caveats that it contains a LOT of stuff that just Does Not Fly anymore (I don’t even mean the whole eating tiger shit subplot), but 1) Chow Yun Fat is one of cinema’s greatest physical comedians, and 2) every Anita Mui costume is PERFECTION
Anita Mui in a scene from the 1988 Hong Kong gender-swapped My Fair Lady comedy The Greatest Lover. She is reclining in a largely pink boudoir while wearing a black sparkly chiffon outfit, with a stuffed toy leopard stole perched on her shoulder. She has a severe black bob hairstyle and is slapping a riding crop into her outstretched hand. If you are hoping that she slaps around Chow Yun Fat and several others with this riding crop boy does this film deliver.

Many underrated pleasures about The Hudsucker Proxy, not least that if you squint you can imagine John Mahoney is doing J. Jonah Jameson (Hudsucker script was co-written by Sam Raimi, by the by)

Me talking about someone I've posted with on the same social media site for a long time but never actually met
Still from the television show What We Do in the Shadows showing Laszlo speaking. Text reads "he's my best friend, he's my pal. He's my homeboy, my rotten soldier. He's my sweet cheese, my good-time boy."

These are my “grand vinyl” scored goodies, showing up to a records sale wanting CDs means you walk away with some real pearlers (also Agnes is an excellent searching-for-treasures comrade as you can see)
A collection of CDs against a pink background. The albums are Lou Reed’s Transformer, The Essential Leonard Cohen, Tom Waits’ Heartattack & Vine, Daisies of the Galaxy by The Eels and Fashion Nugget by Cake.A black western-style rodeo jacket with white piping in arches across the front and looping around the sleeve lapels. The buttons are white and diamond shaped. My general fashion style ethos at the moment is “would Ethan Hawke wear this?” and yes, yes I think he would.

Sometimes I check in on the adoption listings at the animal shelter my mum volunteers at and see a little guy being cosy on a blanket that I knitted 🥹
A black cat with greenish eyes sits snug in a cat bed on top of a woolen knitted blanket comprised of stripes in blue. The text accompanying the adoption listing explains that the cat’s name is Landon, he is 3 years, 9 months and 1 week old, he’s a domestic short hair, and if you would like to adopt him he is located in Bairnsdale.

I went out tonight and saw Lynne Ramsay’s debut feature Ratcatcher in a cinema - IN A CINEMA! The unexpected delights of being alive NEVER CEASE - and it was obviously incredible but also I came home and just crawled immediately into bed because what else can you do after a Lynne Ramsay

Watched Gondry’s Mood Indigo tonight and it’s very obvious why everyone was furious at this on release, it is on an absolutely nuclear level of French Twee Shit. But it’s also genuinely inventive, filled with practical effects, clearly in love with the visual trickery you can only do with cinema

I was supposed to apply for jobs today but what I actually did was make an industrial amount of guacamole and slowly eat it with chips while listening to podcasts then my recruiter called me to see if i’d be interested in a cool-sounding backfill role, this teaches me I’ll be rewarded for indolence

I am no longer in Boat City I am back in Stinktown and sad about it, but the last thing I did was go visit the Tracey Moffat archive exhibition which is on at one of the Sydney Uni museums and it was COOL AS ALL HELL!!!

Sometimes people say that Meg White isn’t the most technically refined drummer and I do feel like it’s worth bringing up that she was drinking coffee and her husband went insane and made them pretend to be siblings and also she had to play the drums, so how good do you think you would do

Currently reading Xiaolu Guo’s 20 Fragments of a Ravenous Youth and oh yeah that’s the good stuff right there
Photo of a paragraph in a book that reads as follows: Past the ice stall were cramped side streets where the walls were like the scales of fish - tall shelves tightly packed with pirated disks. You could find anything you wanted here. CDs, with a hole punched into the middle by customs. VCDs and DVDs of old classics like The Goddess with Ruan Lingyu, Zhao Dan’s Crossroads, even the 1940s film Spring in a Small Town. And so many foreign films. Mamma Roma. Central Station. The Lost Weekend. Plus films by Takeshi Kitano and Shunji Iwai. All piled up on top of each other like firecrackers at Chinese New Year. I loved piracy. It was our university and the only path to the foreign world.

Have you had a cucumber salad lately? With heaps of chopped fresh dill and a dressing with a lot of lemon juice, olive oil, salt ‘n’ pep and a teensy amount of fresh garlic if you have it? Do that, it’s a real good idea, eat it sitting in a sunbeam
